Oh okay could be the definition. Not sure what you refer to as foil where you live . but here is the USA it's made from aluminum or other tinned metal and certainly conductive and if you mix water and potentially exposed or non sealed battery contacts it's a fire or worse .

Just my opinion but wrapping the battery in conductive material could be an issue . I would Don some thick rubber gloves and get that out of there ..

Obviously depends on your fork, But I run a 2.6 up front and 2.25 in the back the specs say no bigger than 2.4 for 29s so that's why I went with the skinny in the back. but I believe others run 2.8 and even 3 inch there's alot of room for wider tires for the back for sure even with 29s . I...

31 inseam. I'm 5' 11" . 29er all around . The 18 fits me perfect clear the top tube easily . It's long bike keep in mind and the top tube slopes nicely toward the seat post .

I just dry fitted an old 48t I had in the toy box. different mount but centered and laid it over the exsiting chainring it that clears the chainstay by .8 inches so I'd be willing to guesstimate the 50 will just make it mounted on the outboard side of the spider.

Lol. ya I know the chains/plural story all to well. Been there with a 52t chainring on a different bike. I'm thinking of the 50t upfront as well I'm topping out at 36mph with the 40t and 10t pedalling as hard as I can in sport 5 mode. Bet it'll hit 40 42 mph with a 50 chainring. I'll be...

Only time will tell, I did break a shimano run of the mill 14/32, 7speed and tore the derailure right off the bike as well. That was with My BBHD running 2000+ watts I switched to the scram gx platform and never looked back. So hopefully this will be the same with the m620 albeit it has a...

I would get whatever frame you can the quickest. Not sure what difference round or aquare charging port would be. As long as the harness fits and charges the battery it's good to go in my book.

That amazes me that your burning up cassettes so fast, I already have 100 miles on my sram 12 speed gx and zero signs of wear. I'm wondering if your use of the throttle as you've described is putting abrupt tension on your system resulting in such quik wear. I know your watching your heart...

I don't use the shift sensor at all just takes a little learning on how to shift when not under load. To me it's just a added thing that can fail and if it's buried in your frame you hoofin home. Just my mho.

Thats called a compresson nurl, at least in the US we call it that. I used the star nut that came with my fork . If you have a fork that uses that then sure if not I would go by what your fork manufacturer recommends. The stock headset screw works fine with a star nut.

How did you get the wattage and calorie to record ..? .. I'm completely new to Strava. I took a short ride today and it only had distance elevation speeds and time.

Dont know if this will help your need. But I purchased a cheap bafang twist throttle for my bbhd fat bike just for the same reason the thumb throttle being on/ off . I do alot of riding with that bike in crowded urban areas with alot of pedestrians and needed the variable throttle for...
